For he had said two or three times,  ye shall know that I am Jehovah:  now he adds the participle,  and that it is I who smite you  This then is the knowledge by which God makes himself known to the reprobate, while they are compelled, whether they will or not, to feel that there is a judge of the world. The faithful indeed profit under God&#8217;s chastisements, and they are at times humbled under his hand, because they do not willingly obey his word: but we said that the Prophet here triumphs over the people&#8217;s pride who dared to deride all threats as if God were sleeping in heaven.
